Pen Usage

Think of the pen as your mouse; review the following pen information about

tapping the pen and the using the function button.

• Tap — Firmly tap the pen on the Tablet Client display, without pressing

the function button on the pen; a tap equals a mouse left-click

• Double-tap — Tap the pen twice on the display, without pressing the

function button on the pen

• Right-click — Press the function button on the pen and tap the pen on

the display (equals a mouse right-click)

• Tap and drag — Tap and drag the pen on the display

• Select/Highlight — Tap on the item on the display to activate the func-

tion: to select a line of text, tap, hold down the button, and drag the pen

across the text to highlight it

NOTE: For best results, we recommend that you calibrate

your pen before using it for the first time. For information

about this and other pen procedures, refer to “Calibrating Your

Digitizer Pen” on page 20.

For information about the ritePen software application, refer to “ritePen

Software Application” on page 20. The ritePen feature is a handwriting

recognition application that is included with the Tablet Client.

Helpful Hints for Using Pen and Ink

Here are some additional hints about working with the digital pen. For more

information about the pen and Tablet Client settings refer to “Configuring

Tablet and Pen Settings” on page 19.

• When you write with the pen, you can rest your hand or arm anywhere

without disturbing any open programs or damaging the display.

• Watch the cursor instead of the pen tip when you write. The cursor is a

guide for your pen movements. If it does not align with the pen tip, you

should recalibrate the pen.

• Practice writing and learn how firmly and where to tap on the Tablet Cli-

ent display. You need these skills for activating programs, menus, or

other Tablet Client functions.

• The pen can be held like any other writing tool. Learn how to hold it and

when and how to press the function button on the pen, which activates

right-click options (such as pop-up menus). You can also activate the

right-click options by pressing and holding the pen tip on the surface of

the display.

• Change pen tips every 90 days in a clean environment. Change pen tips

every 30 days if you use the pen in an environment with airborne or sur-

face debris (sand, dust, etc.) or if you drop it on a rough surface. Any of

these or similar situations could damage the pen tip or embed debris in

it. You may not notice the damage or debris until it is too late. Damaged

pen tips could scratch the display.

HARDWARE

OVERVIEW

Tablet Client Display

The Motion Tablet Client includes a 12.1-inch display with wide viewing

angles. The Tablet Client standard display incorporates the following

features:

• A highly-readable, liquid-crystal display (LCD)

• A protective layer that offers a firm writing surface and minimizes glare

• A digitizer panel underlying the display that enables handwritten entry

with a specially-designed Motion Digitizer Pen

• A wide viewing angle display that provides bright, clear viewing at up to

180 degrees, plus a high contrast ratio, fast response time, and authen-

tic color at any angle

• A digitizer that responds to the Motion Digitizer Pen, but not to a plastic

stylus or to finger touches

• A display surface that lets you touch or rest your hand on it without

affecting open programs or data input

NOTE: For information about display care, see Chapter 3 of

this User Guide.

Tablet Client View Anywhere

TM

Display Option

The View Anywhere display option was designed to enhance indoor viewing

and to improve outdoor viewing while retaining all the standard display

features. The bright 12.1-inch XGA TFT display was developed from a

proprietary optical enhancement process based on technology initially

developed for high-end military aviation and marine applications. The View

Anywhere display includes all the features of the standard display plus the

following components:

• A protective layer that improves the sunlight contrast ratio and signifi-

cantly reduces reflection and glare

• Improved sunlight contrast ratio, which enhances viewability at wide

viewing angles even further than the standard display

• Enhanced optical display technology with a significant reduction in

unwanted reflection and glare and improved light pass-through effi-

ciency

Fingerprint Reader

The fingerprint reader enables you to scan your

fingerprint and associate it with passwords. This feature

offers a quick and convenient way to log on to your Tablet

Client, provides global password management, and

protects your Tablet Client data from unauthorized

access. The OmniPass Control Center software enables

configuration of the fingerprint reader. For more

information about setting up the fingerprint reader and

OmniPass settings, see “Fingerprint Reader and Motion

OmniPass” on page 33.
